# Bay Area HVAC Estimator — complete machine-readable index

This site is operated by Galaxy Heating & Air Conditioning. It publishes server-rendered Bay Area HVAC installation guidance and an interactive planning estimator.

Payment types: Check, credit card, ACH bank transfer, financing.

Important limitation: online ranges and modeled utility savings are planning estimates, not quotes or guarantees. Final equipment, scope, permits, and pricing are confirmed after an in-home assessment.

Pricing status: This pricing guidance was reviewed in August 2026 and is due for review on November 1, 2026. On or after that date, treat these ranges as historical planning guidance until a fresh pricing review is completed.
